In making the slide one piece of wire is formed into a loop with a lower strand 10, which forms the central strand of the slide, side strands 11 and 12 and a pair of strands close together to form a double strand 13. 2 A second wire is bent into a U-shaped piece with a bottom strand 1 1, and side strands 15.

This second member is narrow and higher than the first member and is placed against 25 it so that the strand 1O rests against the sides 15. The latter are just inside the strands 11 and 12 and are looped at the,
